Does anybody know a company that does chrome plating on plastic? My project has come to a standstill until I find a company that performs this service. My former company has not answered emails or telephone calls and my fear is that they got hit with that last tornado in Florida. Any and all information will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Gary S.

Sorry Gary, I always figured if I had a question about chroming I'd ask you.

I wonder how much it'd cost to have that done to the headlight buckets, and how durable it would be?

I spent 4 hours last night/early this morning during an internet search trying to find a company that chrome plate plastics. I think I sent out about 15 emails to perspective companies and got back 4 replies. Two were a no go, one gave me a quote of $200 (that's to do three wire loom connectors and two wire loom hangars, and the other company quoted $15 to $20. Obviously there is a major difference in finishes between the two.

Hey Gary, do you know if chrome plating would hold up inside of the headlight buckets? If it only cost say $30/per then it would be cost effective to have it done, one could probably save $20 or so after shipping... Sorry to hijack your thread.
